Psych – So many quotes, so little time

“How did I get lice anyway?” – Young Shawn

“You come in contact with anything out of the ordinary lately?” — Youngish Henry

” No. Unless you count that squirrel with the foaming mouth I’ve been playing with.” — Young Shawn

*************

“It’s not your fault.” – Shawn to Client

“Oh good. How do you know?” – Client

“I don’t. But when people say that it movies, things seem to get fixed almost magically.” — Shawn

*************

“The Thornburg virus… What does this have to do with Richard Chamberlain?” – Shawn

*************

“Let me get this straight… You hit the town, get sloppy drunk, pass out, woke up without a virus? Isn’t that usually the other way around?” – Shawn to client of the week

*************

“The Thornburg Virus? I studied that in school. But, has there ever been a case in the U.S.?” – Jules

“No! There’s not enough black people!” – Gus

*************

“He has an irrational fear of Patrick Dempsey.” — Gus, about Shawn

“It’s rational. Either of you watch Grey’s Anatomy? The man is completely terrifying!” – Shawn

“You’re just jealous of his hair.” — Jules

“Well, there’s that…” — Shawn

*************

“I’ll have a club soda with three pineapple wedges. And if you can get the Hippy Hippy Shake going, flip a few glasses, and introduce me to Elisabeth Shue, there’s an extra fiver in it for you.” — Shawn to barman at client’s hotel. BTW, that was one of the pineapple references.

*************

“Throughout history, there were only two Gingers who weren’t prostitutes…Ginger Rogers and Ginger from Gilligan’s Island. And I still have my suspicions about the latter. In fact, Gus, I’ve made my decision: she was a filthy, pirate hooker.” – Shawn

*************

“I can’t believe this, Shawn! First we’re looking for a prostitute, now I’m naked in a parking lot!” – Gus

“Just like our prom night.” — Shawn

*************

“I still smell like stinky nuts, Shawn.” — Gus, after being trapped in a hazmat suit with Shawn’s corn nuts.

“Gus, we don’t have four hours to riff on that.” – Shawn

*************

“I could care less about your secretions! However, I would love to get my craniometer around that giant Raisinet of yours. Or is it a Goober? Possibly a malt ball.” — Dr. Reitman (Judd Nelson) on measuring Gus’ giant head. Nelson was funny as the creepy, yet entertaining, doctor.

This week’s pop culture references

Blame it on Rio — A 1984 romantic comedy starring Michael Caine, Valerie Harper and Demi Moore.

Mr. Dobalina… Mr. Bob Dobalina — One of the earliest references to this was in The Monkees’ “Zilch” from their Headquarters album. I know there have been later references to Bob Dobalina since then.

The Thorn Birds – Classic mini-series that aired on ABC in 1983. It starred Richard Chamberlain, Rachel Ward, Christopher Plummer and Jean Simmons.

Iron Eagle 2 and Iron Eagle 4 – Part of the Iron Eagle film series starring Louis Gossett Jr. as Colonel Chappy Sinclair.

“Rump Shaker” — the name of the song Shawn now uses for his ringtone. It was released in 1992 by the hip-hop group Wreckx-N-Effect.

Cumbersome Stay Puft Protective Suit — Mentioned by Shawn, who didn’t know the real name of a Hazmat suit. Of course, the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man was one of the baddies fought in the original Ghostbusters.

Outbreak — 1995 action/suspense film about a deadly viral outbreak in a small American town. Starring Dustin Hoffman, Rene Russo, Kevin Spacey, Cuba Gooding, Jr. and the man below…
